CARNATION Milk is pure cows' milk evap
orated to the consistency of cream by le
moving part of the water only. Its volume as
whole milk may be restored by diluting with
half water. It is hermetically sealed and ster
ilized to insure its purity for you and always
of the same high quality rich, sweet, and pure.

and goes farther. When a recipe calls for 1 cup
milk use only cup Carnation Milk mixed with

MAKE BETTER HOT CHOCOLATE
WITH CARNATION
Four teaspoonfuls cocoa, 6 teaspoonfuls sugar,
3 cups boiling water, 1 cup Carnation Milk, 1-4 tea
spoonful salt. Mix cocoa and sugar In a cup. Have
water boiling. Heat cocoa pot by allowing hot wat
er to stand in it for a few minutes. Heat Carna
tion Milk by standing cup t Carnation Milk in
basin of hot water for five minutes or more. Pour
a little boiling water into cup of cocoa and sugar
to dissolve them. Pour into cocoa pot, add remain
der of water boiling hot, then the hot Carnation
Milk and salt. Serve at once. FOR CHOCOLATE
use two or three times as much chocolate as the
above recipe calls for.
HAVE HOME-MADE ICE CREAM
Four cups Carnation Milk, 1 1-2 cups sugar, 1
cup water, 1 1-2 tablespoonfuls vanilla. Carnation
Milk is always ideal for making ice creams of any
sort, because of its purity and richness. Eggs are
not needed. For plain vanilla ice cream t mix the
sugar and a cup of Carnation Milk together and
let come tov a simmering point; cook for five min
utes in this manner; remove from the fire; when
cool, add remainder of milk and water, and the
vanilla. Freeze. This will make about a quart and
a half.
KEEP CARNATION MILK HANDY
FOR WHIPPING
Place can of Carnation Milk in water and heat to
boiling. Remove promptly, and thoroughly chill by
placing, can on Ice. When cool, open can and pour
milk into chilled bowl placed in another bowl fill
ed with cracked ice. After milk has become thor
oughly chilled, whip in regular way with ordinary
egg-beater for about five minutes. Sweeten and
flavor if desired. Keep on ice until served. Carna
tion Milk will whip satisfactorily without heating,
but better results are assured when above direc
tions are followed. (Flavor if desired.)
